Wear a pair surveying and never have a problem with thick brush, briers or anything of the matter. They also dry faster than denim in my experience.

pants for men, I guess they do for women too. I really like their stuff, have a lot of jeans and T's. I've got a couple pairs of the heavy duck cloth pants, they're briar-proof, but they make others that are 2 layers thick on the front.

Greenr - do yourself a solid and step back from the MK pants.
Go to Carhartt.com and type in 102517 - it’s the Rigby 5 pocket pant. 1 bajillion times better fitting and feels a bajillion times better for much less. Hickory is the color.
Ok. My work is done here for the day.

I lost a good bit of weight and just had to buy new pants cause I haven't worn a 33W in like 18 years, so I am good to go for a while. Thanks though.

and believe it or not, Eddie Bauer. I know EB is not really a true outdoors gear brand any more, but danged if their stuff doesn't look good and hold up pretty darn well. I also have lots of LL Bean stuff.
Also, I have been well pleased with my one pair of relaunched Duck Head khakis. The guy from Bills Khakis is on board and they make a good pair of pants.

so if you see a Columbia Outlet, they usually have some Mtn. Hardwear stuffs. It is good.
I need a new waterproof jacket, the lamination is peeling off my 10 year old Patagucci jacket. Patagucci, Arc'Teryx, and Mtn. Hardwear will be what I shop from.

could be 10, years ago) that yeah, their prices may be cray cray, but they're easily 5 years ahead of everyone else in R&D, which is therefore reflected in price.
not sure how true that was, or if it'd even apply now, but I thought it was interdasting

But I don't have any expeditions booked to the Alps or Himalayas at the moment, so I just need stuff that can survive harsh SC Februaries. I mean, the high today is barely 80.

for the record, I've got a Patagucci Nano-puff, and a similar style Columbia jacket, but with a hood (saw it randomly @ TJ Maxx or Marshalls for like $60 a few years back)
I like columbia mucho times better than the patagucci

$9.99 for a Frogg Toggs poncho at Academy. The 3 people sitting with me at the ACC Championship game stripped off their expensive fancy-brand rain jackets when we got back to the car after the game and I was the only one completely dry.
COMPLETELY. DRY.

and I am particular. Plus wife had one and lamination failed within a year or so.
I had some discontinued Patagucci stretchy rain jacket that has worked forever. Probably cost $150ish when I got it but cannot buy it again.

the best fleece I own is 25 years old and Patagonia. It's deceptively warm for the weight, it blocks wind and pairing it with a shell of some sort is as good as any winter coat I own. Cost me 50 bucks on sale 25 years ago. It's slightly too big because I used to be fat(ter), so I bought a 150.00 well reviewed Marmot fleece and it sucks in comparison. Everyone in my house steals my old Patagonia fleece despite everyone in the house owning their own North Face/Patagonia/Marmot/expensive effing fleece.
